Classes for September 2020
In September, your new class will be 6L.
Please see their class website page from the morning of Monday 13th July and watch the video to find out who your new teacher will be.
Welcome to 5S!
Your class teacher is Miss Jilani
On Wednesday 8th July we are going to hold a mini sports day with the children during their PE session in school and we would like YOU at home to join in with us!
The activities are as follows:
Standing long Jump – no run up:
You must jump from 2 feet to 2 feet – measure from take off point to your heel where you land.
Speed bounce over cones or a line:
How many times can you jump keeping your feet together sideways over a barrier in 20 seconds?
Target Throw
Lay out/make 3 hoops (approx 3m,5m,7m away from you) and attempt to throw one bean bag (or something similar e.g. socks) into each.
Chest Push
Throw a 4 ball as far as possible using only a chest push motion. No turning or twisting body – 2 hands on the ball – must come from chest.
Shuttle run
10 x 10 metres – how quickly can you complete this? (measured in seconds)
Please be creative if you do not have exactly the correct equipment e.g. draw chalk circles instead of hoops, use a pair of socks instead of a beanbag, etc.
Let us know how you get on by sending us your results via Purple Mash or email (5s@brettenham.enfield.sch.uk). You could even send us a video of yourself completing these activities!
